Andrea McArdle - N.Y.C. lyrics

[WARBUCKS] What is it about you You're big You're loud You're tough NYC I go years without you Then I Can't get Enough Enough of the cab drivers answering back In the language far from pure Enough of frankfurters answering back Brother, you know you're in NYC Too busy Too crazy Too hot Too cold Too late I'm sold Again On NYC [spoken] Come on you slowpokes We gotta get to the Roxy before the prices change [NEW YORKERS, GRACE, ANNIE AND WARBUCKS] NYC [GRACE] The shadows at sundown The roofs That scrape The sky [ALL] NYC [WARBUCKS AND GRACE] The rich and the rundown The parade Goes by [WARBUCKS] That other town has the Empire State And a mayor five foot two No other town in The whole forty eight Can half compare To you [ALL] Oh NYC [WARBUCKS] You make 'em all postcards [WARBUCKS AND GRACE] You crowd You cramp You're still The champ Amen For NYC (NYC) The shimmer of Times Square [WARBUCKS] The pulse [GRACE] The beat [WARBUCKS AND GRACE] The drive! (NYC) [WARBUCKS AND GRACE] The city's bright As a penny arcade It blinks, it tilts, it rings [ANNIE] To think that I've lived here all of my life And never seen these things [ALL] Oh, NYC The whole world keeps coming [WARBUCKS] By bus [GRACE] By train [WARBUCKS AND GRACE] You can't Explain Their yen For STAR TO BE NYC Just got here this morning Three bucks Two bags One me NYC I give you fair warning Up there In lights I'll be Go ask the Gershwins or Kaufman and Hart The place they love the best Though California pays big for their art Their fan mail comes addressed to NYC Tomorrow a penthouse That's way up high Tonight The "Y" Why not It's NYC [ALL] NYC You're standing room only You crowd You cramp You're still The champ Amen For NY [MAN] [spoken] Keep it quiet down there! [ALL (QUIETLY)] NYC [USHERETTE] [spoken] Immediate seating... there is immediate seating [WARBUCKS] [spoken] Popcorn, what do you say to some popcorn? I haven't had popcorn since... (Annie yawns) [singing] Give in Don't fight Good girl Good night Sleep tight In NYC
